[QUOTE="azure, post: 1303544, member: 39639"] Yes, excessive carbs can cause the dreaded rollercoaster because I believe we all have a maximum amount of carbs that works for us in a meal. Too many and it makes control hard. But personally I've not seen any rollercoaster sugars on moderate carbs so that also informs my choice. Pre-bolusing has basically stopped that. It's a fantastic tool, and shows the importance of getting insulin there at the right time (however many carbs you might eat). My BS/spikes now compared to shortly after diagnosis, when I knew very little about the way insulin works, are a revelation. Same HbA1C roughly but much smoother sugars. [/QUOTE]
